I've led a very isolated existence since I was 6 years old. It's kind of been me and my mind.

Most of the offers I get from Hollywood are for teen comedies. My manager thinks I'm crazy for turning down all that money, but I'm very picky.

Because of what I did when I was 10 years old, I'm not living from paycheck to paycheck, and I can do things because I want to do them.

I don't even know how to define myself. I'm a person who writes. It's something I enjoy, and hopefully people enjoy it as well.

It's a place where I could do something on a weekly basis and see if I like it.

I'm not one of those actors who needs the media spotlight all the time to feel gratified. I'm happy to do one project a year and take the rest of the year off as long as that project is special.

I lead a simple life. I feed the fish. I walk the dogs. I cook dinner. Occasionally I take a meeting.
